Using pop up trailers is much easier than one might expect. You’re not facing the cumbersome turns and slow acceleration of a RV and don’t face the horrible gas mileage or excessive blind spots either. You merely hitch it up and go! Once you’ve gotten to your destination all you need to do is spot a good camp site and back the trailer in slowly. Once you’ve landed simply unhitch and find a place for your car if you cannot have it nearby. Now you’re ready for some outdoor fun without all the hassles of “camping” in your RV in a giant parking lot, miles away from the outdoors.

You can usually acquire decent a decent trailer for around $5,000 to $10,000, or spend more for a more luxurious one, depending on your necessities. There is a wide array of types of pop up trailers, from very fancy ones with exquisite interiors and amenities to campers with just enough to get by. This decision will be based on your taste and desired size. The only crucial necessities are a place to eat and sleep. The advantages here are getting you off potentially wet ground and into smaller living quarters. Why do you need a whole R.V. when you’re camping? That’s the point, to get outside and see the world! Not sit in an R.V. all day doing the same thing you do at home!

Longevity is the name of the game here, and they have great longevity and require almost no maintenance. The advantage here over using an R.V. is not only the initial cost, but maintenance. Keeping a R.V. up and running with tons of gas and service will add thousands to your trip. Using pop up trailers eliminates this problem because you’re merely towing it behind your vehicle. Granted you will have to get new tires for it occasionally, but not nearly as many as your R.V. will need and you’re not bringing the camper along with you as much as you drive, so you may only need to change the tires once over its lifetime.

You also don’t have any costly engine repairs or maintenance, you just keep everything inside working and you’re good to go! Depending on the size of your vehicle, you can tow almost any size of trailer. Most pop up trailers weight under 5,000 pounds, so getting them behind any medium to large sedan is usually more than enough to bring them along with you. Even if you’re driving a compact, there are tiny trailers you can still pull. The options here are limitless.

As you can see, pop up trailers are much more than a little towable box. They can be home away from home, and give you everything you need while camping and adventuring, without weighing you down with all the burden of carrying excessive gear or driving a home on wheels. There are countless makes and models which we will be exploring soon, so come on in, get your feet wet and keep reading all about the exceptional new adventures that await you!
